Verdict
ASGARD'S CAPTAIN ran right up to form on return from 5 months off at Wolverhampton in November and, with his AW record a positive one, he's fancied to build on that. Wonder isn't obviously well treated but as a lightly-raced 3-y-o there may well be more to come from him, with Shimmering Sands also of interest back up in distance.
